Drawing on official documents, party records, and firsthand accounts, Trotsky presents an unflinching indictment of the methods used to rewrite the revolutionary record, erase political opponents, and consolidate Stalinist power. The work argues with razor-sharp precision that the falsification of history was not incidental but a foundational instrument of Stalinist rule, deployed to destroy the credibility of the Left Opposition. Edited with introduction and explanatory notes by Max Shachtman and translated by John G. Wright, this volume — part of The Selected Works of Leon Trotsky — remains an essential primary source for anyone studying the inner workings of Soviet totalitarianism and the political battles of the early Communist International.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956223389915,"sku":"2026200008082-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/707af57b-2ef3-4817-b7fd-75ffa74a8301.png?v=1783499141","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008082-secondhand-the-stalin-school-of-falsification","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
